Lucy Yeghiazaryan - Lonely House (2023) [Hi-Res]

The Covid pandemic, which confined the world to individual living spaces for a long while, had an intense impact on musicians as it did in all areas of life. With the effect of the melancholy of this chaotic period, the music that was born at that time comes to our ears as new albums, although more than two years have passed.

Jazz vocalist Lucy Yeghiazaryan‘s third album Lonely House will be released on February 24 via LaReserve Records. The theme of loneliness in the album emerged when Yeghiazaryan spent time with his legendary saxophonist husband, Grant Stewart, singing and playing at the piano in their home, perhaps in the loneliest period of New York’s history. They produce a repertoire of classical and calm compositions that appeal to the complex emotions of the present moment.

In the album, there are adaptations of songs with the theme of loneliness, consisting of 11 songs in total, such as Only The Lonely, Lonely Town, Be Myself, as well as the Kurt Weill composition Lonely House.

The timeless compositions, singed by Yeghiazaryan’s with her peaceful unique articulation, were recorded at Rudy van Gelder in February 2022 with the calm accompaniment of pianist Michael Kanan.

A recording that will be enjoyed by music lovers who enjoy quiet vocal and piano duets.
